PSS3000 Series Fixed LDV
Light, robust and simple to use
Dräger PSS 3000 is one of the lightest self contained breathing apparatus carrying system available. We have applied the same advanced technology and design philosophy which was derived from our class leading range of short and extended duration professional breathing apparatus. The extremely durable carrying system features our ultra lightweight, high strength carbon composite carrying frame which exhibits outstanding thermal, impact and chemical resistance properties.
Suitable for use in all conditions easy and quick to don, the lightweight harness has been specially designed to retain its form over a wide range of environmental temperatures and conditions. Utilizing materials which have good chemical and abrasion resistance and also meet the heat and flame requirements of EN137:2006 (Type 2).
Proven air supply technology
Versatility is the foundation of the Dräger PSS series of products. The breathing apparatus PSS 3000 enables the wearer to benefit from leading edge breathing protection technology incorporating, the same advanced pneumatic system used in our class leading breathing apparatus.
Enhanced carrying system
By utilizing the state-of-the-art pressure mapping technology, we have developed a carrying system which follows the natural contours of the body and therefore provides improved stability and reduced back strain, stress and fatigue. The contoured carrying harness provides maximum comfort at both the shoulders and the waist, but optimizes load distribution comfortably and securely, in line with the body’s centre of gravity. Despite this emphasis on wearing comfort, you can rest assured that we have not compromised on the choice of the most rugged and durable materials available, in order to minimize the impact of the most hostile of environments.
Easy to maintain and service
Quick and uncomplicated to service, the breathing apparatus PSS 3000 incorporates a number of unique design features to ensure that downtime, and therefore costs, are kept to a minimum during maintenance. All the major components are simple and quick to remove and re-assemble. The harness is attached to the carrying frame by a single-piece retention method. In addition the first stage pressure reducer, integrated into the carrying frame for added protection, can be readily removed.
Options for every eventuality:
- Choice of lung demand valves
- Full FPS 7000 facemask configuration options
- Utilizing the proven PSS 7000 pressure reducer
- Electronic voice communications
- Dräger compressed air breathing cylinders
- Secondary supply hose connections for rescue and decontamination
- Available with Pneumatic gauge or electronic TX gauge and integrated PASS (Bodyguard 1500)
- High performing, easy to use and with proven technology, the Dräger PSS 3000 guarantees a lifetime of dependable service whilst at the same time minimizing the costs of ownership.
Integrated hoses
Both the medium pressure air supply and gauge hoses are integrated into the carrying-frame to reduce the risk of snagging and entanglement, which results in improved security and safety whilst entering and working in confined spaces. With the ability to re-route these hoses from one side to the other in order to suit customer preferences for gauge access, this design feature also facilitates the easy replacement of each hose.
Dräger Compressed Air Breathing Cylinders – Air Cyl 6.8L/300 bar CC IL (DC)
Dräger NANO Cylinder (NLL), Type 4
The Dräger NANO, Type 4 full composite cylinder is specifically engineered to minimize the weight you carry during hazardous firefighting operations. Thus, it reduces fatigue and increases your agility. It is currently one of the lightest gas cylinders in the market with a shell weight of 2.8 kg (6.8 l of air/300 bar including impact-resistant caps). Designed with PET liner and carbon nanotube technology, it offers weight reduction by more than 47 % when compared to steel type 1 cylinders. Equipped with a lighter cylinder, you also benefit with a longer duration of air consumption and an increase of air supply if using a twinning option. The combination of lightweight sturdy cylinder material with impact-resistant caps ensures high durability and solid robustness.
Dräger Carbon Composite Cylinder, Type 3
Our Carbon Composite Cylinder, Type 3 features a seamless aluminum liner, wrapped with carbon fibers with a fiberglass outer layer gives it a smooth resin finish. This also makes the cylinders lightweight, easy to clean and extremely resistant to shocks, chemicals and abrasion. As a result, you benefit from a weight reduction of 33 % when compared to conventional steel type 1 cylinders. Apart from that, the cylinders are manufactured and tested in accordance with technologically advanced processes.
Dräger Steel Cylinder (NLL), Type 1
In addition, Dräger offers a range of steel cylinders to suit low cost applications such as the marine industry, whilst maintaining a continuous high standard of application.
Quick and Easy to Clean
Dräger cylinders are suitable for both machine and manual cleaning using a standard cleaning agent. This will significantly reduce your exposure to carcinogens and other toxins after an incident.
Customized to Your Design Requirements
When you order Dräger cylinders, we tailor them to meet your specific design requirements: using your own logo, labels, and colors. Personalizing your cylinders makes it easier for you to allocate and manage your equipment.
Service Life Performance
Depending on the filling cycles and materials, our cylinders feature a 20-, 30- year, and non-limited (NLL) design life. Cylinders with a non-limited life can be used indefinitely when proper maintenance and periodic inspections are fulfilled. It is an investment that not only gives you peace of mind during an incident, but also reduces your cost of ownership in the long run.
Always with your safety in mind
We offer an excess flow valve (EFV) to prevent the uncontrolled outflow of gas in case of unintentional opening or damage to the cylinder valve. This feature enables you to activate or deactivate the excess flow without hindering its performance. In addition, approved according to EN 144-2018, the valve offers even greater resistance against forceful impacts while still ensuring full functionality. With Dräger’s Quick Connect technology, you can change cylinders quickly without the need for screwing or unscrewing the handwheel manually. It saves you time and ensures a safe connection between the cylinder and breathing apparatus.
